When even the Dollar General's closing down We'd fix it if we could, but we don't know how Can't put concrete in a casket, if they could they'd bury this town 'Cause even the Dollar General's closing down See that used to bе the movies, now it's just a sign "For Sale" with a numbеr 'tween the marquee lights Another vape shop going next to the IGA Another modern-day Main Street, U.S.A 'Cause even the Dollar General's closing down We'd fix it if we could, but we don't know how Can't put concrete in a casket, if you could they'd bury this town 'Cause even the Dollar General's closing down Greatest trick ever played was taking our voice And giving us two sides in the illusion of choice It ain't left versus right, it's bottom versus top Until we figure it out, this ain't gonna stop Until we figure it out, this ain't gonna stop Until we figure it out, this ain't gonna stop 'Cause even the Dollar General's closing down We'd fix it if we could, but we don't know how Can't put concrete in a casket, if you could they'd bury this town 'Cause even the Dollar General's closing down 'Cause even the Dollar General's closing down
